  • Skagen Celebrates Worldpride in Denmark with New Aaren Pride Styles and Continued Partnership with Interpride
    SKAGEN CELEBRATES WORLDPRIDE IN DENMARK WITH NEW AAREN PRIDE STYLES AND CONTINUED PARTNERSHIP WITH INTERPRIDE Richardson, Texas – August 5, 2021 – Skagen is thrilled to celebrate WorldPride in Copenhagen — the highly-anticipated biannual global event that promotes visibility and awareness of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender issues on a global scale — with a continuation of our Aaren Pride collection that was released in tandem with a minimum $25,000 donation to InterPride in 2021. We support their mission of promoting LGBTQI+ Pride on an international level and we’re proud to release these new limited-edition Pride styles commemorating Danish heritage. Inspired by the iconic 17th-century Nyhavn waterfront houses in Copenhagen, our Aaren Copenhagen style features a colorful, lenticular face to celebrate your Pride year-round. The collection now also features two new timepieces with long-time partner, Hoptimist. Founded in the late 1960s, Danish designer Gustav Ehrenreich created a Happy Movement with the Hoptimist, a bobble-headed and fabled figurine with a cheery disposition and endless optimism. Like Skagen, Hoptimists embrace love, which can now be shown off with exclusive timepieces featuring pairings of two brides and two grooms. Also launching in Skagen’s Pride collection are two beaded bracelets inspired by the rainbow and transgender flags. The Copenhagen and Hoptimist watches (41MM case size) retail for $125, and the bracelets retail for $40. For more information on the Aaren Pride collection and to stay updated on what’s to come, please visit skagen.com and follow @skagendenmark. Skagen Since 1989, we’ve been inspired by Skagen City and the Danish coastline.

  • Yttrande Över Stockholm Prides Ansökan Om Stöd Till Evenemang
    Tjänsteutlåtande Datum: Diarienr: 31-152/09 1 september 2009 Handläggare: Mattias Rindberg Till styrelsen för Stockholm Business Region Yttrande över Stockholm Prides ansökan om stöd till evenemang Ärendet Stockholm Pride har i en skrivelse till Stockholm Visitors Board 2009-08-31 ansökt om ett stöd om 215 000 kronor för marknadsföringen av kandidaturen inför WorldPride Stockholm 2014 (bilaga 2). Stockholm Pride har vid två tillfällen stått värd för EuroPride. Värdskapet 1998 och 2008 i Stockholm föregicks av ansökningar i konkurrens med andra organisatörer. Dessa ansökningar ställdes till den europeiska samarbetsorganisationen, European Pride Organisers Association vilka utsåg aktuell värd. Inom den globala Pride-rörelsen finns motsvarande organisation, Interpride, med medlemmar från alla världsdelar. Denna organisation äger rätten att utse värd för WorldPride, som med mycket begränsat intervall anordnas som magnet för hela rörelsen. Stockholm Pride har för avsikt att kandidera för värdskapet kring WorldPride 2014. Ansökan ska vara styrelsen för Interpride tillhanda den 4 september 2009 varefter kandidaturen sker. Beslutet fattas vid Interprides årsmöte i USA i oktober 2009. Denna kandidatur är mycket viktig då evenemanget bara arrangeras vart 5.e år. 2019 års arrangör är redan utsedd till New York varför nästa möjlighet är 2024. Bolagets synpunkter Den fastställda rutinen för stöd stipulerar följande krav för att ett evenemang ska komma ifråga för ekonomiskt engagemang från stadens sida; evenemanget skall till största delen förläggas till Stockholms stad, evenemanget skall ha potential att locka utländska deltagare och/eller besökare, offentliga evenemang skall ha goda förutsättningar att dra till sig en stor publik samt att evenemanget skall ge möjligheter att exponera Stockholm i framförallt TV och press.
